I previously purchased this product and thought it tasted fine which is why I reordered it. Upon drinking it now, I find that it tastes like plastic and can’t stomach the taste. I love the combination of BCAAs, electrolytes, and hydration, but the taste is terrible in my opinion. It is very sweet too. I mix one (1) scoop in ~24oz of water and still find it too sweet. I cut it down to half a scoop but can’t get past the artificial taste.
Will not buy again.

The flavor is really strong (Lime), but worth getting over. Does wonders for my husband’s workouts/recovery, and I have experienced more than the desired effect on reduction of symptoms from a couple of intermingled medical conditions!

I have been using it for every workout for years.
I’m in my 40s. At one point, after years of just putting up with a particular fatigue issue in my legs, with huge pain, and tightness, that would set in just about a few minutes into my exercise hikes, and made it impossible for me to even do the hike on many occasions, I started looking into things, and discovered BCAAs. The first time I went out for a hike with this stuff in me, it was amazing. It completely changed things for me, and now, years later, it’s still working, and I am able to get out there and exercise whenever I want without that crazy thing happening anymore.

I got it because it was on sale,
The amount of EAA in this product is so minimal
The taste is alright, it doesn’t taste bad but not amazing either. if you have had similar product in similar flavors this taste like those so you won’t be surprised with crazy flavors.
kind of like any cellucor product, good presentation, decent taste, okay ingredients but really don’t feel wow’ed by it
without the sale, there are other better products at this price range

While the flavor (lemon lime) is not the most exciting, it is good for hot days in the gym. I would recommend this for those intense days with high volume that one really wants something refreshing Intra workout. For the price this is a key player in the intra/post amino market.

I decided to get this product to help with the outrageous muscle soreness I was having after starting a weight training routine. Despite taking in well over 100+ grams of protein daily, that first week of weights absolutely murdered me and seven of my past lives; the DOMS moved quickly past pleasant soreness to next level painful. Even more water and sleep didn’t help!
I don’t know if it was placebo or what, but my muscle soreness was gone the day after I had a single dose. I’ve since continued doing an hour of resistance training four to five times a week (and have been making gains in that regard) for about a month and haven’t really had even a hint of DOMS! I take a serving of this mixed with 750 ml of cold water on the drive to the gym and usually finish it off either during my workout or on my drive home (it’s honestly my only preworkout cause I hate how creatine makes me retain water like a bloated pufferfish). Sometimes I have a second serving for funsies just because I really love how it tastes (lemon lime!) but that’s only about once or twice a week ‘cause I ain’t made of dosh.
Anyway, placebo or not, I’m glad this product exists and that it tastes as great as it does!
